What effect will this have on native builds, where both host and
target are MinGW?  Will it require to have libdl installed?  AFAIR, it
doesn't require that now.

If this problem only happens with this combination of host, target,
and build:

> ../configure --enable-plugins --target=arm-linux-android
> --host=i586-pc-mingw32msvc --build=i386-linux-gnu

then wouldn't it be better to fix only that combination?
